Just some record keeping. On Saturday I pollinated the 504 House genetics plant with the 434 Gerhardt. On Sunday I pollinated the 434 Gerhardt with the 504 House main plant. On Monday I applied Anthesis to the main vine pollination on the 2109. On Monday I also sprayed with the Stihl for the first time as I had observed a major influx of cucumber beetles. I also had Eagle 20 and Cal Max in the tank, as I believe I have a Magnesium deficienty in the 504 House. I will pick up some Epsom salts today for more folliar spraying. Here is a pic of the 504 issue, yellowing followed by necrosis of the leaves closest to the stump. The yellowing is not on a single vine as I have observed with YVD in the past, so I am fairly to mostly confident with my assessment.
